We are currently in a Ladies Bible Study by Priscilla Shirer that is entitled “Discerning the Voice of God”. Would the God Who has loved us and given Himself for us, then refuse to speak to us? If He does speak, how do we discern when He is speaking, and what He is telling us? This study helps to clarify those questions and many others.

This study, facilitated by Ellen Brady, meets on Tuesday morning from 9-11 a.m.; and again on Tuesday evening from 6-8 p.m. If you have questions about this study please feel free to call our church office at (217) 378-5278.

On Sunday, July 21st, at 5:00 p.m. we will be gathering together as a church family at the Prince’s home in Mahomet for our annual church picnic and baptismal service. There will be plenty of food and fellowship for all that come! We would love for you to join us! Please contact the church for more information.

The Primetimers will be meeting at the church at 10:00 am on Saturday, June 29th. We’ll be going to Monticello to ride a restored 1907 Southern Locomotive. There is also a small train museum that we will be able to go through. We will go to lunch following the museum. The cost will be $8.00 plus lunch money. Please note: Saturdays & Sundays are the only days the train operates thus the change of “day” for our activity. If you have any questions, please call the church!

Unity Baptist Church is hosting our 2nd Annual Men’s Golf Outing this year! We had a great time (and turnout) at this event last year – and hope that we can do the same again. It’s for men 16 and up, and will be held at Lake of the Woods Golf Course. We’d like to encourage the men of Unity to join us for the fellowship as well as any friends and relatives to come along. We will be meeting at David Jones at 1 p.m. for a meal and then head out for the golf course from there because 3 p.m. is tee time! The cost is $30 per person, and this price will include a cart. If you are interested in joining us for a beautiful day of golf and fellowship, please sign up at church or contact for more information!

On Friday and Saturday, October 25-26, 2013, we will be taking a group of ladies to “Living Proof Live” with Beth Moore. The cost is $69.00 for the ticket, plus food, and your cost of a shared room. If you are interested in joining us for this event, please contact the church!

On June 2nd at 4:00 p.m., the ladies of Unity will be gathering together to fellowship under the theme of “Now and Then” – a celebration of the decades! With our theme, all are welcome to dress according to their favorite decade! This fellowship will also be a potluck, so please bring your favorite dish to share. We look forward to spending time with you! Please contact the church to sign up!

This Sunday, May 12, at 10:15 a.m. we invite you to celebrate the women in your life that have made an impact. We encourage you to invite your loved ones and to join us yourself on this special day as we recognize the gift that mother’s are in our lives.

Primetimers will be leaving the church on Thursday, April 25th, at 10:00 a.m. to meet Mark Burns, manager of Great News Radio Stations for a tour of his home studio. Following the tour we will have lunch at a local restaurant. There is a sign up sheet in the foyer, or you can give us a call at the church to let us know you are coming. We hope that you will join us! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact the church or Ray & Shirley Jones!

There will be no games on Memorial Day (May 27th), and the regular season will end on July 8. The tournament will be on July 15, 22, and 29. If you would like to join the team this year, please contact the church!

Our new prayer ministry started this month, and we would like you to consider being a part of it! We have four families that have opened their homes once a month in March, April, and May for Cottage Prayer Meetings. A Cottage Prayer Meeting is a time set aside for a small group of God’s people to gather in a host home for the purpose of praying for the specific needs of the church’s ministry. We would love for you to join us for one of these Prayer Meetings to pray together for our church family and ministry. If you are interested in being a part of this new ministry, here are the times and places:
